1. Acquisitions and Significant Accounting Policies
Acquisitions
2011 Acquisitions
During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we completed four acquisitions, which were not material. We acquired certain assets of three companies in our aviation segment and one company in our land segment. The financial position, results of operations and cash flows of these acquisitions have been included in our consolidated financial statements since their respective acquisition dates.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011, we completed two acquisitions. We acquired all of the outstanding stock of Ascent Aviation Group, Inc. (Ascent) based in Parish, New York on April 1, 2011. Ascent supplies branded aviation fuel and de-icing fluid to more than 450 airports and fixed base operators throughout North America. The other acquisition was in our marine segment and was not material. The financial position, results of operations and cash flows of these acquisitions have been included in our consolidated financial statements since their respective acquisition dates. In connection with the Ascent acquisition, we paid certain assumed employee benefits which have been classified as a financing activity in the consolidated statement of cash flows due to the fact that the liability was paid on behalf of the seller subsequent to closing.
On March 1, 2011, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Nordic Camp Supply ApS and certain affiliates (NCS) based in Aalborg, Denmark. NCS is a full-service supplier of aviation fuel and related logistics solutions supporting NATO, US and other European armed forces operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. The financial position, results of operations and cash flows of NCS have been included in our consolidated financial statements since its acquisition date.
The estimated aggregate purchase price for the 2011 acquisitions was $153.2 million, and is subject to change based on the final value of the net assets acquired. The following reconciles the estimated aggregate purchase price for the 2011 acquisitions to the cash paid for the acquisitions, net of cash acquired (in thousands):

The fair value of the common stock issued as part of the consideration paid for our acquisitions was determined on the basis of the closing market price of the common shares on the acquisition date.
The estimated purchase price for each of the 2011 acquisitions was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value at the acquisition date. Since the valuations of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the 2011 acquisitions have not been finalized, the allocation of the purchase price of these acquisitions may change. On an aggregate basis, the estimated purchase price allocation for the 2011 acquisitions is as follows (in thousands):

In connection with the 2011 acquisitions, we recorded goodwill of $39.5 million in our aviation segment, $2.8 million in our marine segment and $0.6 million in our land segment, of which $25.9 million is anticipated to be deductible for tax purposes.
The revenues and net income of the 2011 acquisitions were $163.6 million and $4.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and $349.6 million and $9.2 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

The acquisitions completed during the three months ended September 30, 2011 are not included in the pro forma information for the three months ended September 30, 2011 as their impact on the pro forma amounts is not significant.
2010 Acquisitions
Based on our ongoing fair value assessment of certain of our 2010 acquisitions, we recorded an increase in acquired net assets of $3.9 million with a related increase in the aggregate estimated purchase price of these acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in acquired net assets was mainly attributable to 1) an increase in goodwill of $11.6 million and $2.8 million in our land and marine segments, respectively, 2) a reduction of goodwill of $0.4 million in our aviation segment, 3) a reduction in identifiable intangible assets of $9.3 million, 4) a reduction in fixed assets of $0.5 million and 5) an increase in long-term liabilities of $0.5 million. Since the valuations of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisitions completed in the last three months of 2010 have not been finalized, the allocation of the purchase price of these acquisitions may change.
There were no significant adjustments in total acquired net assets during the three months ended September 30, 2011.
2009 Acquisitions
In April 2009, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of Henty Oil Limited, Tank and Marine Engineering Limited and Henty Shipping Services Limited (collectively, Henty), a provider of marine and land based fuels in the United Kingdom. The Henty purchase agreement includes an Earn-out based on Henty meeting certain operating targets over the three-year period ending April 30, 2012. The maximum Earn-out that may be paid is £6.0 million ($9.3 million as of September 30, 2011) if all operating targets are achieved with a minimum Earn-out of £2.7 million ($4.2 million as of September 30, 2011). We estimate the fair value of the Earn-out at each reporting period based on our assessment of the probability of Henty achieving such operating targets over the three-year period. As of September 30, 2011, we have recorded an Earn-out liability of £3.2 million ($5.0 million). The impact of Hentys revenues and net income did not have a significant impact on our results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.
Significant Accounting Policies
Except as updated below, the significant accounting policies we use for quarterly financial reporting are the same as those disclosed in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2010 10-K Report.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes to the consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries, after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts, transactions, and profits.
Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current periods presentation.
Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement
We have a Receivables Purchase Agreement (RPA) to sell up to $100.0 million of certain of our accounts receivable. The sale price is an amount equal to either 90% or 100%, depending on the customer, of the sold accounts receivable balance less a discount margin equivalent to a floating market rate plus 2% and certain other fees, as applicable. Under the terms of the RPA, we retain a beneficial interest in certain of the sold accounts receivable of 10%, which is included in accounts receivable, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
As of September 30, 2011, we had sold accounts receivable of $41.8 million and recorded a retained beneficial interest of $4.1 million. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the fees and interest paid under the RPA were not significant.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the future earnings and cash flow potential of the acquired business in excess of the fair values that are assigned to all other identifiable assets and liabilities. Goodwill arises because the purchase price paid reflects numerous factors, including the strategic fit and expected synergies these targets bring to existing operations and the prevailing market value for comparable companies. Of the increase in goodwill from December 31, 2010, $56.9 million was related to acquisitions (see Acquisitions above), which was partially offset by a reduction in goodwill of $0.8 million as a result of foreign currency translation adjustments of our Brazilian subsidiary in our marine segment.
Extinguishment of Liability
In the normal course of business, we accrue liabilities for fuel and services received for which invoices have not yet been received. These liabilities are derecognized, or extinguished, if either 1) payment is made to relieve our obligation for the liability or 2) we are legally released from our obligation for the liability, such as when our legal obligations with respect to such liabilities lapse or otherwise no longer exist. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we derecognized vendor liability accruals due to the legal release of our obligations in the amount of $2.7 million and $5.9 million, as compared to $3.3 million and $7.9 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, which is reflected as a reduction of cost of revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Testing Goodwill for Impairment. In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an accounting standards update (ASU) intended to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment. This update permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. This ASU becomes effective on a prospective basis at the beginning of our 2012 fiscal year. We do not believe that the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Disclosure Relating to Comprehensive Income. In June 2011, the FASB issued an ASU aimed at increasing the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income in the financial statements. This update requires companies to present comprehensive income in a single statement below net income or in a separate statement of comprehensive income immediately following the income statement. This ASU becomes effective on a prospective basis at the beginning of our 2012 fiscal year. We do not believe that the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Fair Value Measurements. In May 2011, the FASB issued an ASU to provide a consistent definition of fair value and common requirements for measurement and disclosure of fair value between International Financial Reporting Standards and U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principals. This ASU changes some fair value measurement principles and enhances disclosure requirements related to activities in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The guidance becomes effective on a prospective basis at the beginning our 2012 fiscal year. We do not believe that the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Transfers and Servicing: Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements. In April 2011, the FASB issued an ASU that affects all entities that enter into agreements to transfer financial assets that both entitle and obligate the transferor to repurchase or redeem the financial assets before their maturity. This ASU removes from the assessment of effective control the criterion relating to the transferors ability to repurchase or redeem financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee, and also eliminates the requirement to demonstrate that the transferor possesses adequate collateral to fund substantially all of the cost purchasing replacement financial assets. This ASU is effective at the beginning of our 2012 fiscal year and is required to be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occur on or after January 1, 2012. We are currently evaluating whether the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations. In January 2011, we adopted an ASU which clarifies the acquisition date that should be used for reporting pro forma financial information when comparative financial statements are presented and also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures required. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. In January 2011, we adopted an ASU which modifies the requirements of step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. In July 2010, the FASB issued an ASU relating to improved disclosures about the credit quality of financing receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. In December 2010, we adopted the portion of the guidance which pertains to disclosures as of the end of the reporting period. In January 2011, we adopted the portion of the guidance which pertains to the disclosures for activity that occur during a reporting period. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
2. Derivatives
We enter into financial derivative contracts in order to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations in aviation, marine and land fuel, to offer our customers fuel pricing alternatives to meet their needs and to mitigate the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We also enter into proprietary derivative transactions, primarily intended to capitalize on arbitrage opportunities related to basis or time spreads for fuel products that we sell. We have applied the normal purchase and normal sales exception (NPNS), as provided by accounting guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities, to certain of our physical forward sales and purchase contracts. While these contracts are considered derivative instruments under the guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities, they are not recorded at fair value, but rather are recorded in our consolidated financial statements when physical settlement of the contracts occurs. If it is determined that a transaction designated as NPNS no longer meets the scope of the exception, the fair value of the related contract is recorded as an asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheet and the difference between the fair value and the contract amount is immediately recognized through earnings.
The following describes our derivative classifications:
Cash Flow Hedges. Includes certain of our foreign currency forward contracts we enter into in order to mitigate the risk of currency exchange rate fluctuations.
Fair Value Hedges. Includes derivatives we enter into in order to hedge price risk associated with our inventory and certain firm commitments relating to fixed price purchase and sale contracts.
Non-designated Derivatives. Includes derivatives we primarily enter into in order to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations in aviation, marine and land fuel in the form of swaps and other financial instruments, as well as certain fixed price purchase and sale contracts (which do not qualify for hedge accounting or are not elected for as normal purchase normal sale) to offer our customers fuel pricing alternatives to meet their needs and for proprietary trading. In addition, non-designated derivatives are also entered into to hedge the risk of currency rate fluctuations.
As of September 30, 2011, our derivative instruments, at their respective fair value positions were as follows (in thousands, except mark-to-market prices):

We enter into derivative instrument contracts which may require us to periodically post collateral. Certain of these derivative contracts contain clauses that are similar to credit-risk-related contingent features, including material adverse change, general adequate assurance and internal credit review clauses that may require additional collateral to be posted and/or settlement of the instruments in the event an aforementioned clause is triggered. The triggering events are not a quantifiable measure; rather they are based on good faith and reasonable determination by the counterparty that the triggers have occurred. The net liability position for such contracts, the collateral posted and the amount of assets required to be posted and/or to settle the positions should a contingent feature be triggered were not significant as of September 30, 2011.

4. Debt
On July 28, 2011, we amended our $800.0 million senior revolving credit facility (Credit Facility) to, among other things, (i) add a $250.0 million senior term loan facility with a maturity date of July 2016 (Term Loan Facility), the full amount of which we received on the date of the Credit Facility amendment, (ii) extend the maturity date of the Credit Facility to July 2016 and (iii) reduce certain fees, including applicable margins for Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans. Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility may be designated as Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans and bear floating interest rates plus applicable margins. The Term Loan Facility requires principal payments as follows: $2.5 million in 2012, $7.5 million in 2013, $12.5 million in 2014, $17.5 million in 2015 and $210.0 million in 2016.

Our provision for income taxes for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were calculated based on the estimated effective tax rate for the full 2011 and 2010 fiscal years. However, the actual effective tax rate for the full 2011 fiscal year may be materially different as a result of differences between estimated versus actual results and the geographic tax jurisdictions in which the results are earned. The change in the effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the corresponding period in 2010 resulted primarily from differences in the actual and forecasted results of our subsidiaries in tax jurisdictions with different tax rates as compared to the corresponding periods in 2010.
6. Commitments and Contingencies

We incurred rental expense for all properties and equipment of $4.7 million and $2.5 million for the third quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively and $13.2 million and $7.2 million for the first nine months of 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Legal Matters
Miami Airport Litigation
In April 2001, Miami-Dade County, Florida (the County) filed suit (the County Suit) in the state circuit court in and for Miami-Dade County against 17 defendants to seek reimbursement for the cost of remediating environmental contamination at Miami International Airport (the Airport).
Also in April 2001, the County sent a letter to approximately 250 potentially responsible parties (PRPs), including World Fuel Services Corporation and one of our subsidiaries, advising of our potential liability for the clean-up costs of the contamination that is the subject of the County Suit. The County has threatened to add the PRPs as defendants in the County Suit, unless they agree to share in the cost of the environmental clean-up at the Airport. We have advised the County that: (i) neither we nor any of our subsidiaries were responsible for any environmental contamination at the Airport, and (ii) to the extent that we or any of our subsidiaries were so responsible, our liability was subject to indemnification by the County pursuant to the indemnity provisions contained in our lease agreement with the County.
If we are added as a defendant in the County Suit, we would vigorously defend any claims, and we believe our liability in these matters (if any) should be adequately covered by the indemnification obligations of the County.
Brendan Airways Litigation
One of our subsidiaries, World Fuel Services, Inc. (WFSI), is involved in a dispute with Brendan Airways, LLC (Brendan), an aviation fuel customer, with respect to certain amounts Brendan claims to have been overcharged in connection with fuel sale transactions from 2003 to 2006. In August 2007, WFSI filed an action in the state circuit court in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida, seeking declaratory relief with respect to the matters disputed by Brendan. In October 2007, Brendan filed a counterclaim against WFSI. In February 2008, the court dismissed WFSIs declaratory action. Brendans counterclaim remains pending as a separate lawsuit against WFSI, and Brendan is seeking $4.5 million in damages, plus interest and attorneys fees, in its pending action. We believe Brendans claims are without merit, and we intend to vigorously defend all of Brendans claims.
As of September 30, 2011, we had recorded certain reserves related to the proceedings described above which were not significant. Because the outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain, we may not prevail in these proceedings and we cannot estimate our ultimate exposure in such proceedings if we do not prevail. Accordingly, a ruling against us in any of the above proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Other Matters
In addition to the matters described above, we are involved in litigation and administrative proceedings primarily arising in the normal course of our business. In the opinion of management, except as set forth above, our liability, if any, under any other pending litigation or administrative proceedings, even if determined adversely, would not materially affect our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Fair value of commodity contracts and hedged item commitments is derived using forward prices that take into account commodity prices, basis differentials, interest rates, credit risk ratings, option volatility and currency rates. Fair value of hedged item inventories is derived using spot commodity prices and basis differentials. Fair value of foreign currency forwards is derived using forward prices that take into account interest rates, credit risk ratings and currency rates.
For our derivative contracts, we may enter into master netting, collateral and offset agreements with counterparties. These agreements provide us the ability to offset a counterpartys rights and obligations, request additional collateral when necessary or liquidate the collateral in the event of counterparty default. We net fair value of cash collateral paid or received against fair value amounts recognized for net derivative positions executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting or offset agreement.
There were no amounts recognized for the obligation to return or reclaim cash collateral that have been offset against fair value assets included within netting and collateral in the above table as of December 31, 2010. The amounts recognized for the obligation to return and reclaim cash collateral that have been offset against fair value assets and liabilities included within netting and collateral in the above table were $1.0 million and $6.1 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2011.
The following table presents information about our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis that utilized Level 3 inputs for the periods presented (in thousands):

Our policy is to recognize transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 as of the beginning of the reporting period in which the event or change in circumstances caused the transfer to occur. There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the periods presented. In addition, there were no Level 3 purchases, sales or issuances for the periods presented. The unrealized gains on the Earn-out shown in the above table represent foreign currency gains recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.
8. Business Segments
Based on the nature of operations and quantitative thresholds pursuant to accounting guidance for segment reporting, we have three reportable operating business segments: aviation, marine and land. Corporate expenses are allocated to the segments based on usage, where possible, or on other factors according to the nature of the activity. Please refer to Note 1 for the dates that the results of operations and related assets and liabilities of our acquisitions have been included in our operating segments. The accounting policies of the reportable operating segments are the same as those described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (see Note 1).
Information concerning our revenue, gross profit and income from operations by segment is as follows (in thousands):

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our 2010 10-K Report and the consolidated financial statements and related notes in Item 1 - Financial Statements appearing elsewhere in this 10-Q Report. The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ significantly from the results suggested by these forward-looking statements. Some factors that may cause our results to differ materially from the results and events anticipated or implied by such forward-looking statements are described in Item 1A Risk Factors of our 2010 10-K Report.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements made in this report and the information incorporated by reference in it, or made by us in other reports, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), press releases, teleconferences, industry conferences or otherwise, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements include, without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or achievements, and may contain the words believe, anticipate, expect, estimate, project, could, would, will, will be, will continue, will likely result, plan, or words or phrases of similar meaning.
Forward-looking statements are estimates and projections reflecting our best judgment and involve risks, uncertainties or other factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. The Companys actual results may differ materially from the future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These statements are based on our managements expectations, beliefs and assumptions concerning future events affecting us, which in turn are based on currently available information.
Examples of forward-looking statements in this 10-Q Report include, but are not limited to, our expectations regarding our business strategy, business prospects, operating results, effectiveness of internal controls to manage risk, working capital, liquidity, capital expenditure requirements and future acquisitions. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding demand for our products, the cost, terms and availability of fuel from suppliers, pricing levels, the timing and cost of capital expenditures, outcome of pending litigation, competitive conditions, general economic conditions and synergies relating to acquisitions, joint ventures and alliances. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Although we believe that the estimates and projections reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, our expectations may prove to be incorrect.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results and events anticipated or implied by such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
· customer and counterparty creditworthiness and our ability to collect accounts receivable and settle derivative contracts;
· changes in the market price of fuel;
· changes in the political, economic or regulatory conditions generally and in the markets in which we operate;
· our failure to effectively hedge certain financial risks and the use of derivatives;
· non-performance by counterparties or customers to derivative contracts;
· changes in credit terms extended to us from our suppliers;
· non-performance of suppliers on their sale commitments and customers on their purchase commitments;
· loss of, or reduced sales, to a significant government customer;
· non-performance of third-party service providers;
· adverse conditions in the industries in which our customers operate, including a continuation of the global recession and its impact on the airline and shipping industries;
· currency exchange fluctuations;
· failure of the fuel we sell to meet specifications;
· our ability to manage growth;
· our ability to integrate acquired businesses;
· material disruptions in the availability or supply of fuel;
· risks associated with operating in high risk locations, such as Iraq and Afghanistan;
· uninsured losses;
· the impact of natural disasters, such as hurricanes;
· our failure to comply with restrictions and covenants in our senior revolving credit facility (Credit Facility) and our senior term loan facility (Term Loan Facility);
· the liquidity and solvency of banks within our Credit Facility;
· increases in interest rates;
· declines in the value and liquidity of cash equivalents and investments;
· our ability to retain and attract senior management and other key employees;
· changes in U.S. or foreign tax laws or changes in the mix of taxable income among different tax jurisdictions;
· our ability to comply with U.S. and international laws and regulations including those related to anti-corruption, economic sanction programs and environmental matters;
· increased levels of competition;
· the outcome of litigation; and
· other risks, including those described in Item 1A - Risk Factors in our 2010 10-K Report and those described from time to time in our other filings with the SEC.
We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for us to predict all of those risks, nor can we assess the impact of all of those risks on our business or the extent to which any factor may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. The forward-looking statements in this 10-Q Report are based on assumptions management believes are reasonable. However, due to the uncertainties associated with forward-looking statements, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and unless required by law, we expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to publicly update any of them in light of new information, future events, or otherwise.
For these statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act).
Overview
We are a leading global fuel logistics company, principally engaged in the marketing, sale and distribution of aviation, marine, and land fuel products and related services on a worldwide basis. We compete by providing our customers value-added benefits, including single-supplier convenience, competitive pricing, the availability of trade credit, price risk management, logistical support, fuel quality control and fuel procurement outsourcing. We have three reportable operating business segments: aviation, marine, and land. We primarily contract with third parties for the delivery and storage of fuel products and in some cases own storage and transportation assets for strategic purposes. In our aviation segment, we offer fuel and related services to major commercial airlines, second and third-tier airlines, cargo carriers, regional and low cost carriers, airports, fixed based operators, corporate fleets, fractional operators, private aircraft, military fleets and to the U.S. and foreign governments, and we also offer charge card processing services in connection with the purchase of aviation fuel and related services. In our marine segment, we offer fuel and related services to a broad base of marine customers, including international container and tanker fleets, commercial cruise lines, yachts and time-charter operators, as well as to the U.S. and foreign governments. In our land segment, we offer fuel and related services to petroleum distributors operating in the land transportation market, retail petroleum operators, and industrial, commercial and government customers. Additionally, we also operate a small number of retail gas stations in the U.S and Gibraltar.
In our aviation and land segments, we primarily purchase and resell fuel, and we do not act as brokers. Profit from our aviation and land segments is primarily determined by the volume and gross profit achieved on fuel resales, and in the case of the aviation segment, a percentage of processed charge card revenue. In our marine segment, we primarily purchase and resell fuel and also act as brokers for others. Profit from our marine segment is determined primarily by the volume and gross profit achieved on fuel resales and by the volume and commission rate of the brokering business. Our profitability in our segments also depends on our operating expenses, and may be significantly affected to the extent that we are required to provide for potential bad debt.
Our revenue and cost of revenue are significantly impacted by world oil prices, as evidenced in part by our revenue and cost of revenue fluctuations in recent fiscal years, while our gross profit is not necessarily impacted by changes in world oil prices. However, due to our inventory average costing methodology, significant movements in fuel prices during any given financial period can have a significant impact on our gross profit, either positively or negatively depending on the direction, volatility and timing of such price movements.
We may experience decreases in future sales volumes and margins as a result of the ongoing deterioration in the world economy, transportation industry, natural disasters and continued conflicts and instability in the Middle East, Asia and Latin America, as well as potential future terrorist activities and possible military retaliation. In addition, because fuel costs represent a significant part of our customers operating expenses, volatile and/or high fuel prices can adversely affect our customers businesses, and consequently the demand for our services and our results of operations. Our hedging activities may not be effective to mitigate volatile fuel prices and may expose us to counterparty risk. See Item 1A Risk Factors of our 2010 10-K Report.
Reportable Segments
We have three reportable operating segments: aviation, marine and land. Corporate expenses are allocated to each segment based on usage, where possible, or on other factors according to the nature of the activity. We evaluate and manage our business segments using the performance measurement of income from operations. Financial information with respect to our business segments is provided in Note 8 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements included in this 10-Q Report.
Results of Operations

Our aviation segment income from operations was $41.2 million for the third quarter of 2011, an increase of $9.7 million, or 30.6%, as compared to the third quarter of 2010. This increase resulted from $28.1 million in higher gross profit, which was partially offset by increased operating expenses of $18.4 million. The increase in aviation segment operating expenses was attributable to higher compensation and employee benefits, provision for bad debt and general and administrative expenses primarily attributable to the inclusion of the operating results of the NCS, Ascent, Hiller and Western acquisitions, as well as increased compensation for new hires to support growth.
Our marine segment earned $24.9 million in income from operations for the third quarter of 2011, an increase of $4.2 million, or 20.5%, as compared to the third quarter of 2010. This increase resulted from $8.9 million in higher gross profit, which was partially offset by increased operating expenses of $4.7 million. The increase in marine segment operating expenses was attributable to higher compensation and employee benefits, provision for bad debt and general and administrative expenses.
Our land segment income from operations was $18.7 million for the third quarter of 2011, an increase of $15.4 million as compared to the third quarter of 2010.

The non-GAAP financial measures above exclude costs associated with share-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangible assets, primarily because we do not believe they are reflective of the Companys core operating results. We believe the exclusion of share-based compensation from operating expenses is useful given the variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair value of our common stock, the effect of which is unrelated to the operational conditions that give rise to variations in the components of our operating costs. Also, we believe the exclusion of the amortization of acquired intangible assets is useful for purposes of evaluating operating performance of our core operating results and comparing them period-over-period. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered in conjunction with our financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, are useful to investors to further aid in evaluating the ongoing financial performance of the Company and to provide greater transparency as supplemental information to our GAAP results. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our presentation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share may not be comparable to the presentation of such metrics by other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

The non-GAAP financial measures above exclude costs associated with share-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangible assets, primarily because we do not believe they are reflective of the Companys core operating results. We believe the exclusion of share-based compensation from operating expenses is useful given the variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair value of our common stock, the effect of which is unrelated to the operational conditions that give rise to variations in the components of our operating costs. Also, we believe the exclusion of the amortization of acquired intangible assets is useful for purposes of evaluating operating performance of our core operating results and comparing them period-over-period. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered in conjunction with our financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, are useful to investors to further aid in evaluating the ongoing financial performance of the Company and to provide greater transparency as supplemental information to our GAAP results. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our presentation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share may not be comparable to the presentation of such metrics by other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net cash used in operating activities totaled $216.9 million as compared to $33.0 million in 2010. The $183.9 million increase in cash used in operating activities compared to 2010 was primarily due to changes in net operating assets and liabilities, primarily net working capital, driven by increased sales volume and higher world oil prices as compared to 2010, which were partially offset by increased net income.
Investing activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net cash used in investing activities was $130.8 million as compared to $43.9 million in 2010. The $86.9 million increase in cash used in investing activities compared to 2010 was primarily due to increased cash used in the acquisition of businesses in 2011 as compared to 2010.
Financing activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net cash provided by financing activities was $230.4 million as compared to $202.8 million in 2010. The $27.6 million increase in cash provided by financing activities compared to 2010 was primarily due to borrowings of $250.0 million under the Term Loan Facility in 2011 as compared to proceeds from the sale of equity shares of $218.8 million in 2010.
Other Liquidity Measures
Cash and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2011, we had $151.9 million of cash and cash equivalents compared to $272.9 million of cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2010. Our primary uses of cash and cash equivalents are to fund accounts receivable, purchase inventory and make strategic investments, primarily acquisitions. We are usually extended unsecured trade credit from our suppliers for our fuel purchases, though certain suppliers may require us to either prepay or provide a letter of credit. Increases in oil prices can negatively affect liquidity by increasing the amount of cash needed to fund fuel purchases as well as reducing the amount of fuel that we can purchase on an unsecured basis from our suppliers.
Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility. Our Credit Facility permits borrowings of up to $800.0 million with a sublimit of $300.0 million for the issuance of letter of credit and bankers acceptances. Under the Credit Facility, we have the right to request increases in available borrowings up to an additional $150.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. On July 28, 2011, we amended our Credit Facility to, among other things, (i) add a $250.0 million Term Loan Facility with a maturity date of July 2016, the full amount of which we received on the date of the Credit Facility amendment, (ii) extend the maturity date of the Credit Facility to July 2016 and (iii) reduce certain fees, including applicable margins for Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans. The Term Loan Facility requires principal payments as follows: $2.5 million in 2012, $7.5 million in 2013, $12.5 million in 2014, $17.5 million in 2015 and $210.0 million in 2016. We had no outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and $250.0 million outstanding under our Term Loan Facility as of September 30, 2011. Our issued letters of credit under the Credit Facility totaled $37.0 million and $72.0 million as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
Our liquidity, consisting of cash and cash equivalents and availability under the Credit Facility, fluctuates based on a number of factors, including the timing of receipts from our customers and payments to our suppliers as well as commodity prices. Our Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants with which we are required to comply. Our failure to comply with the financial covenants contained in our Credit Facility could result in an event of default. An event of default, if not cured or waived, would permit acceleration of any outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility, trigger cross-defaults under other agreements to which we are a party and impair our ability to obtain working capital advances and letters of credit, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. As of September 30, 2011, we were in compliance with all financial covenants contained in our Credit Facility.
Other credit lines. We have other unsecured credit lines aggregating $127.1 million for the issuance of letters of credit, bank guarantees and bankers acceptances. These credit lines are renewable on an annual basis and are subject to fees at market rates. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our outstanding letters of credit and bank guarantees under these credit lines totaled $93.1 million and $44.0 million, respectively. We also have a Receivables Purchase Agreement to allow for the sale of up to $100.0 million of our accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2011, we had sold accounts receivable of $41.8 million and recorded a retained beneficial interest of $4.1 million under the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
Short-Term Debt. As of September 30, 2011, our short-term debt of $18.3 million represents the current maturities (within the next twelve months) of certain promissory notes related to acquisitions, loans payable to noncontrolling shareholders of a consolidated subsidiary, borrowings under the Term Loan Facility and capital lease obligations.
We believe that available funds from existing cash and cash equivalents and our Credit Facility, together with cash flows generated by operations, remain sufficient to fund our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. In addition, to further enhance our liquidity profile, we may choose to raise additional funds which may or may not be needed for additional working capital, capital expenditures or other strategic investments. Our opinions concerning liquidity are based on currently available information. To the extent this information proves to be inaccurate, or if circumstances change, future availability of trade credit or other sources of financing may be reduced and our liquidity would be adversely affected. Factors that may affect the availability of trade credit or other forms of financing include our performance (as measured by various factors, including cash provided from operating activities), the state of worldwide credit markets, and our levels of outstanding debt. Depending on the severity and direct impact of these factors on us, financing may be limited or unavailable when needed or desired on terms that are favorable to us.
Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Except for changes in our lease commitments, debt and interest obligations, derivatives, liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties (Unrecognized Tax Liabilities) and letters of credit, as described below, our remaining contractual obligations and off-balance sheet arrangements did not change materially from December 31, 2010 to September 30, 2011. For a discussion of these matters, refer to Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements in Item 7 of our 2010 10-K Report.

Debt and Interest Obligations. These obligations include only interest payments on fixed-rate debt, based on the expected payment dates. We have other interest obligations on variable-rate debt; however, these obligations have been excluded, as the expected interest rates cannot be estimated reasonably.
Derivatives. See Item 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk included in this 10-Q Report, for a discussion of our derivatives.
Unrecognized Tax Liabilities. As of September 30, 2011, our Unrecognized Tax Liabilities were $41.8 million. The timing of any settlement of our Unrecognized Tax Liabilities with the respective taxing authority cannot be reasonably estimated.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees. In the normal course of business, we are required to provide letters of credit or bank guarantees to certain suppliers. A majority of these letters of credit and bank guarantees expire within one year from their issuance, and expired letters of credit or bank guarantees are renewed as needed. As of September 30, 2011, we had issued letters of credit and bank guarantees totaling $130.1 million under our Credit Facility and other unsecured credit lines. For additional information on our Credit Facility and credit lines, see the discussion thereof in Liquidity and Capital Resources above.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Information regarding recent accounting pronouncements is included in Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this 10-Q Report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Derivatives
We enter into financial derivative contracts in order to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations in aviation, marine and land fuel, to offer our customers fuel pricing alternatives to meet their needs and to mitigate the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We also enter into proprietary derivative transactions, primarily intended to capitalize on arbitrage opportunities related to basis or time spreads for fuel products that we sell. We have applied the normal purchase and normal sales exception (NPNS), as provided by accounting guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities, to certain of our physical forward sales and purchase contracts. While these contracts are considered derivative instruments under the guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities, they are not recorded at fair value, but rather are recorded in our consolidated financial statements when physical settlement of the contracts occurs. If it is determined that a transaction designated as NPNS no longer meets the scope of the exception, the fair value of the related contract is recorded as an asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheet and the difference between the fair value and the contract amount is immediately recognized through earnings.
The following describes our derivative classifications:
Cash Flow Hedges. Includes certain of our foreign currency forward contracts we enter into in order to mitigate the risk of currency exchange rate fluctuations.
Fair Value Hedges. Includes derivatives we enter into in order to hedge price risk associated with our inventory and certain firm commitments relating to fixed price purchase and sale contracts.
Non-designated Derivatives. Includes derivatives we primarily enter into in order to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations in aviation, marine and land fuel in the form of swaps and other financial instruments, as well as certain fixed price purchase and sale contracts (which do not qualify for hedge accounting or are not elected for as normal purchase normal sale) to offer our customers fuel pricing alternatives to meet their needs and for proprietary trading. In addition, non-designated derivatives are also entered into to hedge the risk of currency rate fluctuations.
As of September 30, 2011, our derivative instruments, at their respective fair value positions were as follows (in thousands, except mark-to-market prices):

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of the end of the period covered by this 10-Q Report, we evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2011.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2011.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there is only the reasonable assurance that our controls will succeed in achieving their goals under all potential future conditions.

Exhibit 10.1
[Letterhead of World Fuel Services]
October 25, 2011
Re: Notice of changes to your Restricted Stock Unit Agreements to address certain tax laws
Dear Mr. Clementi,
You currently hold restricted stock units (Restricted Stock Units) with respect to shares of World Fuel Service Corporations (the Company) common stock, par value U.S. $0.01 per share (Shares), that were granted to you under the Companys 2006 Omnibus Plan, as it may be amended from time to time (the Plan), pursuant to Restricted Stock Unit award agreements between you and the Company, dated March 15, 2009, March 15, 2010 and March 15, 2011, respectively, each as amended on May 20, 2011 and as may be further amended from time to time (each, an RSU Agreement). In accordance with its authority pursuant to Section 19(a) of the RSU Agreements, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company is hereby amending the RSU Agreements to address certain requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Accordingly, effective at 11:59 p.m. on December 31, 2011, your RSU Agreements will be deemed to incorporate the provisions of this notice.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any RSU Agreement or any other agreement that relates to your Restricted Stock Units:
1. Vesting and Forfeiture of Shares. Section 3(b)(i) of your RSU Agreements is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
(i) (A) Except as otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the Committee) as set forth in Section 3(b)(i)(B) hereof, the Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable in the event that a Change of Control occurs while the Participant is employed by the Company or any Subsidiary. The vested Restricted Stock Units shall be converted, as of the effective date of the Change of Control, into a fully-vested fixed cash amount equal to the product of (x) fair market value (as determined by the Committee in its discretion) of the per Share consideration received by holders of Shares in the transaction constituting the Change of Control and (y) the number of Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units (the CIC Cash-Out Amount). The CIC Cash-Out Amount shall be credited with interest at the 10-year U.S. Treasury Securities rate or, if greater as of the effective date of the Change of Control, the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal, during the period commencing upon consummation of the Change of Control and ending on the date that the CIC Cash-Out Amount is paid to the Participant in accordance with Section 5(b) hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the Participant will not forfeit any portion of the CIC Cash-Out
Amount upon termination of employment for any reason, whether pursuant to Section 3(b)(ii), 3(b)(iii), 3(b)(iv) or otherwise. In the event that Restricted Stock Units have been converted into the CIC Cash-Out Amount, the provisions of Sections 5(c) and 5(d) relating to settlement of Restricted Stock Units shall apply to settlement of the CIC Cash-Out Amount.
(B) Notwithstanding Section 3(b)(i)(A) hereof, if in the event of a Change of Control the Committee determines that the successor company shall assume or substitute for the Restricted Stock Units as of the date of the Change of Control, then the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units that are assumed or substituted shall not be so accelerated as a result of such Change of Control. For this purpose, the Restricted Stock Units shall be considered assumed or substituted only if (1) the Restricted Stock Units that are assumed or substituted vest at the times that such Restricted Stock Units would vest pursuant to this Agreement and (2) immediately following the Change of Control, the Restricted Stock Units confer the right to receive for each unvested Restricted Stock Unit held immediately prior to the Change of Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash or other securities or property) received by holders of Shares in the transaction constituting a Change of Control for each Share held on the effective date of such transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the transaction constituting a Change of Control is not solely common stock of the successor company or its parent or subsidiary, the Committee may provide that the consideration to be received upon the vesting of any Restricted Stock Unit will be solely common stock of the successor company or its parent or subsidiary substantially equal in fair market value (on a per share basis) to the per share consideration received by holders of Shares in the transaction constituting a Change of Control. The determinations of (1) whether the Restricted Stock Unit shall be assumed or substituted in accordance with this Section 3(b)(i)(B) or shall convert into the CIC Cash-Out Amount in accordance with Section 3(b)(i)(A) hereof and (2) in the event that this Section 3(b)(i)(B) is applicable, such substantial equality of value of consideration shall be made by the Committee in its sole discretion and such determinations shall be conclusive and binding. The award resulting from the assumption or substitution of the Restricted Stock Units by the successor company shall continue to vest after the Change of Control transaction in accordance with the Vesting Schedule, and shall be referred to hereafter as the Acquirer RSUs. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the event of termination of the Participants employment by the successor company or its affiliates without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason within 24 months following such Change of Control, the portion of the Acquirer RSUs that had not vested as of the date of the Change of Control and that did not otherwise become vested after the Change of Control shall become vested as of the last day of the Restricted
Period as defined in the Employment Agreement, provided, however, that such vesting shall be conditioned upon Participants compliance with Sections 4 and 6 of the Employment Agreement throughout the Restricted Period. From and after a Change of Control pursuant to which Restricted Stock Units are treated in accordance with this Section 3(b)(i)(B), (x) all references in this Agreement to Restricted Stock Units shall be deemed to refer to Acquirer RSUs, and (y) all references to Shares corresponding to or Shares underlying any Restricted Stock Units shall be deemed to refer to the consideration corresponding to or underlying Acquirer RSUs.
2. Settlement of Awards. Sections 5(a) and (b) of your Restricted Stock Unit Agreements are hereby deleted in their entirety and replaced with the following:
(a) Delivery of Stock. The Company shall deliver the Shares corresponding to the vested Restricted Stock Units to the Participant within 30 days following the applicable Vesting Date; provided that, in the event that a portion of the Restricted Stock Units shall vest in connection with a termination of the Participants employment (i) due to death, the Company shall deliver the Shares with respect to such pro rata portion within 30 days following the Termination Date, or (ii) due to a Section 409A Disability or any Separation from Service that results in payment pursuant to Section 3(b)(i)(B), Section 3(b)(iii) or Section 3(b)(iv) hereof, the Company shall deliver the Shares attributable to such portion (to the extent such Restricted Stock Units become vested) within 30 days following the second anniversary of the Termination Date.
(b) Delivery of CIC Cash Amount. The Company shall deliver to the Participant the CIC Cash-Out Amount (plus interest credited thereon) within 30 days following the Vesting Date applicable to the Restricted Stock Units to which the CIC Cash-Out Amount relates, provided that in the event of the Participants termination of employment prior to the applicable Vesting Date (i) due to death, the Company shall deliver the CIC Cash-Out Amount within 30 days following the Termination Date, or (ii) due to Section 409A Disability or a Separation from Service for any reason that is not covered by the preceding clause (i), the Company shall deliver the CIC Cash-Out Amount within 30 days following the second anniversary of the Termination Date.
3. Dividend Equivalents. In addition to the entirety of Section 6 of your RSU Agreements, the following sentence is hereby added to the end of Section 6(b)(i):
In the event that Restricted Stock Units are converted into the CIC Cash-Out Amount pursuant to Section 3(b)(i)(A) hereof, the Cash Account that relates to such Restricted Stock Units shall be added to the CIC Cash Amount and shall be paid to the Participant in accordance with Section 5(b) hereof.
4. Compliance with Section 409A. Section 19(b)(i) of your RSU Agreements is hereby replaced in its entirety with the following:
(i) Payments or delivery of Shares or cash in respect of the Participants Cash Account or, if applicable, the CIC Cash-Out Amount, under this Agreement may not be made earlier than (u) the Participants Separation from Service, (v) the date the Participant incurs a Section 409A Disability, (w) the Participants death or (x) a specified time (or pursuant to a fixed schedule) specified in this Agreement at the date of the deferral of such compensation;
5. Usage and Interpretation. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) with respect to Sections 6(b)(i), 7, 9, 19 and 20 of your RSU Agreements, references to the Cash Account shall be interpreted to include the CIC Cash-Out Amount, and (b) the reference to Section 6(b) in Section 9(c) of your RSU Agreements shall be deemed to refer to Section 5 (and, if applicable, Section 6).
6. Definitions. All capitalized terms used in this notice but not otherwise defined herein will have the same meaning as defined in the Plan or in the relevant RSU Agreement. In addition, this notice and your RSU Agreements shall be deemed to incorporate the following terms as defined in this Section 6:
(a) Section 409A means Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder;
(c) Section 409A Disability means a disability within the meaning of Section 409A; and
(d) Separation from Service means a termination of employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries that constitutes a separation from service within the meaning of Section 409A.
7. Full Force and Effect. Except as specifically set forth herein, this notice shall not, by implication or otherwise, alter, amend or modify in any way any terms of any RSU Agreement, all of which shall continue in full force and effect.
8. Governing Law/Jurisdiction. The validity and effect of this notice shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to any conflict-of-law rule or principle that would give effect to the laws of another jurisdiction. Any dispute, controversy, or question of interpretation arising under, out of, in connection with, or in relation to the RSU Agreements or any amendments thereof, or any breach or default hereunder, shall be submitted to, and determined and settled by, litigation in the state or federal courts in Miami-Dade County, Florida. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in Miami-Dade County, Florida. Each party hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any litigation in Miami-Dade County, Florida.
9. Entire Agreement. This notice, together with the Plan and the RSU Agreements, contains the entire agreement between you and the Company concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, discussions, negotiations and undertakings, whether written or oral, between you and the Company with respect hereto.

Exhibit 10.2
RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS GRANT AGREEMENT
1. Grant of Award. The Compensation Committee (the Committee) of the Board of Directors (the Board) of World Fuel Services Corporation, a Florida corporation (the Company) has awarded to Name (the Participant), effective as of Grant Date (the Grant Date), # Shares restricted stock units (the Restricted Stock Units) corresponding to that same number of shares (the Shares) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the Common Stock). The Restricted Stock Units have been granted under the World Fuel Services Corporation 2006 Omnibus Plan, as amended and restated (the Plan), which is incorporated herein for all purposes, and the grant of Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the terms, provisions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan. As a condition to entering into this Agreement, and as a condition to the issuance of any Shares (or any other securities of the Company), the Participant agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the Plan. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.
2. Vesting and Forfeiture.
(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Restricted Stock Units shall vest on the one-year anniversary of the Grant Date (the Vesting Date), provided that the Participant continues to serve as a member of the Board through and until the Vesting Date. There shall be no proportionate or partial vesting of Restricted Stock Units in or during the months, days or periods prior to the Vesting Date.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable in the event that a Change of Control occurs while the Participant is serving as a member of the Board.
(c) If the Participant ceases to be a member of the Board due to the Participants death or Disability prior to the Vesting Date, then any unvested Restricted Stock Units shall immediately vest upon the Participants ceasing to be a member of the Board. For purposes herein, the term Disability means the Participants inability to perform, with or without reasonable accommodation, his services as a member of the Board by reason of any medically determined physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, as determined by a medical doctor satisfactory to the Committee.
(d) If the Participant ceases to be a member of the Board for any reason (other than death or Disability) prior to the Vesting Date, then any unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be immediately forfeited upon the Participants ceasing to be a member of the Board and revert back to the Company without any payment to the Participant. The Committee shall have the power and authority to enforce on behalf of the Company any rights of the Company under this Agreement in the event of the Participants forfeiture of any Restricted Stock Units pursuant to this provision.
3. Adjustment. The number of Restricted Stock Units are subject to adjustment by the Committee in the event of any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a subdivision or consolidation of the Common Stock or the payment of a stock dividend on Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock effected without receipt or payment of consideration by the Company.
4. Settlement of Restricted Stock Units.
(a) Delivery of Stock. Subject to Section 8 of this Agreement, the Company shall deliver the Shares corresponding to the vested Restricted Stock Units which are the subject of this Agreement to the Participant as follows: (i) Shares with respect to 50% of such vested Restricted Stock Units shall be delivered within 30 days after the Vesting Date and (ii) Shares with respect to the remaining 50% of such vested Restricted Stock Units shall be delivered within 30 days following the earlier of (A) the third anniversary of the Grant Date and (B) the date on which the Participant ceases for any reason to be a member of the Board; provided that, in the event that the Restricted Stock Units shall vest in connection with either a Change of Control or the Participant ceasing to be a member of the Board due to death or Disability, the Company shall deliver the Shares with respect to the vested Restricted Stock Units within 30 days following the date on which the Change of Control occurs or the Participant ceased to be a member of the Board, as applicable; provided further that, notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, the settlement of any Restricted Stock Units that constitute nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (Section 409A) shall be subject to the requirements of Section 16 of this Agreement.
(b) Death of Participant. By written notice to the Companys Secretary, the Participant may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to whom any vested Restricted Stock Units shall be transferred upon the death of the Participant. In the absence of such designation, or if no designated beneficiary survives Participant, such vested Restricted Stock Units shall be transferred to the legal representative of the Participants estate. No such transfer of the Restricted Stock Units or the right to the Shares corresponding to such Restricted Stock Units or any portion thereof into Common Stock, shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Committee shall have been furnished with written notice thereof and with a copy of the will and/or such evidence as the Committee deems necessary to establish the validity of such transfer or right to convert, and an agreement by the transferee, administrator, or executor (as applicable) to comply with all the terms of this Agreement that are or would have been applicable to the Participant and to be bound by the acknowledgements made by the Participant in connection with this grant.
5. Rights with Respect to Shares Represented by Restricted Stock Units.
(a) No Rights as Shareholder until Delivery. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5, the Participant shall not have any rights, benefits or entitlements with respect to any Shares subject to this Agreement unless and until the
Shares have been delivered to the Participant. On or after delivery of the Shares, the Participant shall have, with respect to the Shares delivered, all of the rights of a shareholder of the Company, including the right to vote the Shares.
(b) Dividend Equivalents.
(i) Cash Dividends. As of each date on which the Company pays a cash dividend with respect to its Shares, the Participant shall be entitled to receive the cash dividends payable on such Shares corresponding to the Restricted Stock Units which are the subject of this Agreement as if those Shares had been issued and outstanding as of the dividend payment date, so long as the Participant has not forfeited such Restricted Stock Units as provided herein. Cash dividends payable with respect to such Shares shall be distributed to the Participant at the same time as such dividends are paid to regular holders of the Common Stock.
(ii) Stock Dividends. As of each date on which the Company pays a stock dividend with respect to its shares of Common Stock, then the Shares corresponding to the Restricted Stock Units shall be increased by the stock dividend that would have been payable with respect to the Shares that correspond to the Restricted Stock Units, and shall be subject to the same vesting requirements as the Restricted Stock Units, to which they relate, and to the extent vested, shall be distributed at the same time as Shares corresponding to vested Restricted Stock Units are distributed.
6. Transfers. The Participant may not, directly or indirectly, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer any Restricted Stock Units.
7. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company has filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the Registration Statement) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act), to register the Shares under the 1933 Act. The Participant acknowledges receipt of the Prospectus prepared by the Company in connection with the Registration Statement. Prior to conversion of the Restricted Stock Units into Shares, the Participant shall execute and deliver to the Company such representations in writing as may be requested by the Company in order for it to comply with the applicable requirements of Federal and state securities law.
8. Taxes. The Company expressly permits the Participant (or the Participants estate, if applicable), at his or her option (or at the option of the Participants estate, if applicable), to elect to have the Company retain Shares that would otherwise be delivered to the Participant hereunder that have an aggregate Fair Market Value (determined by using the Fair Market Value as of the day immediately following the date of settlement) equal to the estimated Federal, state, local and foreign or other taxes that the Participant would incur in connection with the settlement of such Restricted Stock Units, provided that, and to the extent that, the Participant holds, at the time of such settlement, and has held, for a period of no less than six months and one day preceding the date of such settlement, a number of Shares equal to the number of Shares to be so retained. In exchange for the Shares retained by the Company pursuant to this Section 8,
the Company will make a cash payment to the Participant (or the Participants estate, if applicable) in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares so retained. The Participant shall communicate his or her election by delivery to the Company of a form to be provided by the Company, which shall be received no less than two business days prior to the date of such settlement. Any acquisition of Shares corresponding to Restricted Stock Units by the Company as contemplated hereby is expressly approved by the Committee as part of the approval of this Agreement.
9. Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
10. Plan Governs. This Agreement is subject to all of the terms and provisions of the Plan. In the event of a conflict between one or more provisions of this Agreement and one or more provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern.
11. Governing Law/Jurisdiction. The validity and effect of this Agreement shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to any conflict-of-law rule or principle that would give effect to the laws of another jurisdiction. Any dispute, controversy or question of interpretation arising under, out of, in connection with or in relation to this Agreement or any amendments hereof, or any breach or default hereunder, shall be submitted to, and determined and settled by, litigation in the state or Federal courts in Miami-Dade County, Florida. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and Federal courts sitting in Miami-Dade County, Florida. Each party hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any litigation in Miami-Dade County, Florida.
12. Committee Authority. The Committee shall have all discretion, power, and authority to interpret the Plan and this Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith. All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Committee in good faith shall be final and binding upon the Participant, the Company and all other interested persons, and shall be given the maximum deference permitted by law. No member of the Committee shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Agreement.
13. Captions. The captions provided herein are for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for the interpretation or construction of this Agreement.
14. Agreement Severable. In the event that any provision in this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability shall not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
15. Miscellaneous. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding of the parties on the subjects covered. The Participant expressly warrants that he or she is not executing this Agreement in reliance on any promises, representations, or inducements other than those contained herein. This Agreement and the Plan can be amended or terminated by the Company to the extent permitted under the Plan. Amendments hereto shall be effective only if set forth in a written statement or contract, executed by a duly authorized member of the Committee. The Participant shall at any time and from time to time after the date of this Agreement, do, execute, acknowledge, and deliver, or will cause to be done, executed, acknowledged and delivered, all such further acts, deeds, assignments, transfers, conveyances, powers of attorney, receipts, acknowledgments, acceptances and assurances as may reasonably be required to give effect to the terms hereof, or otherwise to satisfy and perform Participants obligations hereunder.
16. Compliance with Section 409A.
(a) If and to the extent that the Committee believes that the Restricted Stock Units may constitute a nonqualified deferred compensation plan under Section 409A, the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (and /or the provisions of the Plan applicable thereto) shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the applicable requirements of Section 409A, and the Committee, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Participant, may amend this Agreement (and the provisions of the Plan applicable thereto) if and to the extent that the Committee determines necessary or appropriate to comply with the applicable requirements of Section 409A.
(b) If and to the extent required to comply with Section 409A:
(i) Payments or delivery of Shares under this Agreement may not be made earlier than (u) the Participants separation from service, (v) the date of a change in the ownership, change in the effective control or change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets, in each case, of the Company, (w) the date the Participant incurs a disability, (x) the Participants death or (y) a specified time (or pursuant to a fixed schedule) specified in this Agreement at the date of the deferral of such compensation;
(ii) The time or schedule for any payment of the deferred compensation may not be accelerated, except to the extent provided in applicable Treasury Regulations or other applicable guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service; and
(iii) If the Participant is a specified employee, a distribution on account of a separation from service may not be made before the date which is six months after the date of the Participants separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of the Participants death).
For purposes of the foregoing, the terms in quotations shall have the same meanings as those terms have for purposes of Section 409A, and the limitations set forth herein shall
be applied in such manner (and only to the extent) as shall be necessary to comply with any requirements of Section 409A that are applicable to this Agreement.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not make any representation to the Participant that any consideration awarded pursuant to this Agreement is exempt from, or satisfies, the requirements of Section 409A, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the Participant or any beneficiary for any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that the Participant or any beneficiary may incur in the event that any provision of this Agreement, or any amendment or modification thereof, or any other action taken with respect thereto, that either is consented to by the Participant or that the Company reasonably believes should not result in a violation of Section 409A, is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Section 409A.
17. Unfunded Agreement. The rights of the Participant under this Agreement with respect to the Companys obligation to distribute Shares corresponding to vested Restricted Stock Units shall be unfunded and shall not be greater than the rights of an unsecured general creditor of the Company.
18. Stock Ownership Policy. The Participant understands that the Committee has adopted a policy that requires the Participant to own a multiple of the Participants cash retainer in Common Stock. The Shares corresponding to any vested Restricted Stock Units that have not yet been delivered to the Participant shall be deemed to be Shares owned by the Participant for purposes of such policy. The Participant agrees to comply with such policy and any modifications thereof that may be adopted by the Committee from time to time.
